Additive Manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D printing, has made an advance in the industrial world in recent years. AM simplifies the production of complex parts, improves material-efficient and make it possible to create parts which are more light while keeping the same performance requirements. With it comes specific needs in cleaning or post treatment processes.

INVENTEC benefits of it’s years of expertise in high-tech cleaning and surface treatment to adapt our solutions to the specific requirements of AM and to the materials used.

There are 5 main domains in AM where INVENTEC can provide a solution:

It is important to understand the materials used and to select compatible cleaning or surface treatment products to achieve the expected results.

Polymers	Metals	Ceramics	Hybrids
	Steel Stainless steel Titanium Aluminium Cobalt-chromium Nickel alloys Bronze Gold	Alumina Mullite Zirconia Silicon carbide Silica Limestone phosphites Graphite	Hybrids & formulations Glass Wax

Below table provides an overview of the products or product ranges we can recommend for each application domain.

The world of additive manufacturing is still in development with new materials & processes introduced every day. We follow closely with major actors in this industry these new developments and requirements. You have a question or a specific need? Don’t hesitate to contact us.
